Nirvana Director Creates New Michael Jackson Video

Michael Jackson’s new ‘A Place With No Name’ video was made by Sam Bayer, the director who created the ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’ clip for Nirvana.

‘A Place With No Name’ was based on America’s A Horse With No Name. Jackson admitted that the America classic was the inspiration for the “new” track which was recorded in 1998.

Here is the official video for the track, the second from Jackson’s Xscape album. There may also be a bit of deja vu in the shots of Jackson used in the video. They had previously appeared in the video for his hit In the Closet.

Sam Bayer also made Robbie Williams’ Angels.
